Another roasted vegetable. They really are better than boiled or microwaved. You can add Parmesan cheese, and/or lemon.
Ingredients:
- 2 1/4 lbs green beans – frozen or fresh
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 -2 tablespoon olive oil (or just enough to lightly coat beans)
- 1 – 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp coarse ground pepper
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes
- 2 Tab balsamic vinegar
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Wash, dry well, and trim green beans. Or defrost and dry the frozen beans.
- Coat a large baking sheet with the olive oil.
- Place the green beans on the sheet and toss with garlic, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and balsamic.
- spread them out in one layer. They brown best when they are not crowded.
- Roast for 8 minutes, stir green beans, and roast another 7-12 minutes until the beans just start to crisp on the end. (They may take longer – depends on ???)
- Remove from oven and serve.
Serves: 4
